1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Prostate cancer (PCa) is a leading malignancy in men, with mortality primarily attributed to progression to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Although androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) initially demonstrates efficacy, most advanced patients eventually develop CRPC-a stage characterized by limited treatment options and poor prognosis. Elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying CRPC transformation therefore represents a research priority. Tumor metabolic reprogramming has emerged as a hallmark of cancer, and among various metabolic pathways, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)-a bioactive lipid mediator-has been increasingly implicated in PCa progression, particularly CRPC transformation. This review systematically examines LPA metabolic sources and signal transduction mechanisms and explores how LPA promotes CRPC progression through driving proliferation, survival, invasion, therapy resistance, and tumor microenvironment remodeling. Finally, we discuss the potential and challenges of targeting the LPA signaling pathway as a novel therapeutic strategy for CRPC.
